It will be a material aid to a full understanding of the reasons for the construction shown in said drawings to here point out that the case proper. as shown in Fig. 1, together with the closure members for the respective ends of the tubes or barrels thereof, constitute the permanent and regular portions and members of this device; and

that the supplementary devices shown in Figs. 5 to 15 of the drawings constitute acoessories which ma be changed, inter changed and renewe at will, an 'as use and necesslty may require; said devices in and of themselves, as considered apart rom the complete or anization shown in Fig. 4, are termed rells, and in the commercial promotion of this invention are supplied and may be purchased as needed, although the ipmpict is originally sold complete as in In detail the construction shown in said drawings is as follows:

Within the case 1 are mounted two barrcls or tubular members 2 and 3 arranged in contiguous parallel relation. of said barrels are open andeach end is supplied with a closure member 4, 5, 6 and 7 respectively. Said closure members are also tubular in form havin an outside diameter of such size as to adapt them to fit closely into the ends of said tubes 2, 3 and to be readily insertable into. and removable therefrom. All of said closure members are preferably identical in size and shape,and are of socket-like construction with their openings or sockets disposed inwardly when in their closed position within saidbarrels 2 and 3,see Figs. 5, 8, 10 and 14.

Each closure member is adapted to carry within its socket, one or more beauty requisites or accessories, or to carry a container v,for such accessories as the case may be, or

as desired by the user of the compact. As

shown in the drawings, such beauty aids or accessories comprise the following items,

Member 4 carries a small container 8 of face powder which may be of the usual form having a rotating tip 9, to either retain or release the powder. according to the rotative position of said top.

Member 5 carries a tubular extension 10 and this extension, in turn, carries a reversible sleeve 11 in one end of which is inserted one end of a lip-stick 12, and in the other end of said sleeve is inserted one end of an eye-brow pencil 13. See Figs. 8 and 9.

Member 6 carries a cylindrical structure 14 which is centrally, longitudinally severed, so as to form two semi-cylindrical pans 15 and 16 which are hinged together at 17 and may be opened to the position shown in Fig. 12; when this device 14 is closed, and one end of it inserted within said member 6, it is firmly secured in the PATENT .o FrcE.

The ends I I closed position. The pan 16 may contain rouge and the pan 15 may contain mascara,

each in a paste form, or any other accessories in paste form. The closure member 7 is shown as carrying atubular extension 18,

Y which in turn carries an eye-brow brush ee Figs. 13, 1 4.and 15. SmdFig. 15'

As shown in thedrawings said barrels are secured together by means of the metallic casing 1 but any other method of attachment may be employed, or the "case may beof a casing having formed therein a plurality of tubular parallel barrels, each barrel being open at both ends, a closure for each open end of the barrels, each closure 30 comprising aflanged head and an inwardly extended flange to fit in y'vhereby to house beauty aids within t e barrels.

2. In a beauty compact, the combination of acasing having formed therein a lurality of tubulargarallel barrels, each arrel being open atoth ends, a closure member for each opposite end of the barrels, each closure member having an inwardly facing socket'to on age in the res 'tive o n ends of the barre s, and each soc et mem r bearing a rece tacle for beauty aids adapted to be partial y and removably inserted within the respective receptacles and housed in the barrels.
